To honor the bride's Taiwanese heritage, a traditional tea ceremony, was held before the wedding. "It was important for us to honor our elders—introduce them to one another and formally thank them for their roles in our lives," says I-Ching.

I-Ching also wore an heirloom necklace. "My grandmother gave it to my mother on her wedding day," she says. Mark wore a Haspel seersucker suit and orange Ferragamo tie. The couple married at a farm owned by the groom's family.

The couple hung photos of family and friends on a fruiting cherry tree display. The day after the wedding, the couple and Mark's parents planted the tree on the farm. "We love that it will reap the love of the people who attended our wedding and grow for years to come," says I-Ching.

The couple enlisted Aran Keating of Ridiculous Entertainment, to provide the music. "He eventually got everyone hooting and hollering!" says I-Ching. The evening ended with guests gathered around a roaring bonfire; some even camped out and spent the night in the barn.
